I agree that would be best, but let's do one thing at a time. This prototype
is the first of 16 in a row in that driver. It would be good to remove all
of them, but that change is totally unrelated to the much more important
one that Jaccon is doing here.

I'd say leave the prototype as it is for now, just change the type of the ioaddr
argument in this patch. Patches to fix the numerous other style issues with this
driver are of course welcome as well.
